noooob help please
I've been searching for a while now. I am new and need some explanations and help. I read that def soft cap is 45% and resistance is 90%. and dmg is....850% or something like that. this is for a brute by the way..dunno if that makes a difference.
so..i have a SS/SD brute. is it more beneficial to get as much def as possible (up to 45%) or should I just think: "i'm gonna get hit anyway, might as well have 90% resistance" |
I don't really play brutes enough to know the answer to your question, OP, but I do know where to find someone who does -
Head over to the Brute forums under Archetypes & Powers. There are folks there who love to discuss numbers and such for playing a Brute for maximum SMASH!

Well with a SS/SD brute you're not going to hit the Hard cap for resistance without team buffs. SD gives you defense so you should build for defense. The soft cap is 45%, you don't really need to go over it. I try to aim for 46-47% Defense because of -Defense attacks.
As for I'm just going to get hit, with Soft Capped defense you're not just going to get hit, you're going to get hit about 1 out of 20 attacks. Also 45% defense is about the same as 90% resistance.

That lists the limits.
Limits do vary based on AT - Damage for example. Next highest cap is Blasters, Scrappers, Corruptors, and Stalkers 500% (so, +400% including enhancements), and for the rest 400% (+300%).
